You can put this solution on YOUR website!
can you please help me solve: (((2x^2+x-6/2x+4))).... this is not an equation so
you can't solve it, but it's an expression that you can simplify:
;
%28%282x%5E2%2Bx-6%29%29%2F%28%282x%2B4%29%29
:
Both the numerator and denominator can be factored to:
%28%282x-3%29%28x%2B2%29%29%2F2%28x%2B2%29%29
Note that you have (x+2) in both the numerator and denominator, cancel this and you have:
%282x-3%29%2F2
:
Did this make sense to you?
